According to the CDC (2011) more people die from injuries each year than from any other cause. Injuries are the leading cause of death for people of all ages and cost more than $406 billion annually in medical care and lost productivity. To aid in injury prevention efforts, the North Region EMS & Trauma Care Council (NREMS) provides funding for community-based injury prevention projects.

The North Region EMS Injury Prevention Grant Cycle will begin April 1st, 2017. Please email Martina Nicolas at martina@northregionems.com to be added to the notification list for grant updates.
